With two months to go until the opening event preparations for the 2014 Britpart MSA British Cross Country Championship (BCCC) are well underway.
The organisers have been busy behind the scenes and they've now published the championship regulations which are available to download from www.marches4x4.com.

The BCCC championship crown, won by Dan Lofthouse in 2013, will be fought for over six events with the best five scores to count. Each event is scheduled to take place on forestry land and the courses will generally be around six miles in length.
As well as the BCCC, which is a National A championship, a National B “Trophy” championship will run over the same six events. A Freelander Challenge, for relatively standard Land Rover Freelanders, will also take place.
The championship will be supported by extensive media coverage including a dedicated BCCC TV You Tube channel, a full event photograph gallery after each event and a very active Facebook page. Coverage will also be provided in print with such as Motorsport News and Total Offroad carrying event reports.
Round 1 takes place on 12/13 April at the popular Myherin forest in mid-Wales. This venue has been used by the BCCC several times before and is always a favourite with the crews with its mix of fast gravel tracks (as also used in the world rally championship) and technical off-road sections.
Entry to the championship costs £1,700 which can be paid in three instalments. Events can be entered on a one-off basis as a “Clubman” for £300.
